The challenge I am taking part in is to embark on a 9 day trip to the Simien Mountains in Ethiopia between 2nd - 10th October 2015.  I'm part of a team of 50 participants from DLA Piper aiming to raise a grand total of £185,000 for Unicef.

Comprising of 4 days trekking and 5 days travelling/acclimatisation, this will be a tough and challenging trek.  The ultimate goal is to summit Mount Bwahit at a height of 4,450m.
